Ok have seen people see the tag on there generator. And find out that something isntcorrect.
Reason I'm asking is I'm about to order a throttle cable for my mep-016b onan gen. The tag on the caseing says it is indeed a 016b. Any reasonit could be wrong?
Ill post a pic of the tag in my pics on this site along with arts. I do not have a completpic at this time. If one is needed I can post one after work if it helps.
Ok in the process on my phone of uploading the sister to my gererator. They were both receivied from the same place. In fact they were both on the trailer together untill we turned it from a gen trailer to a pump trailer. My gen i got from the firehouse where im a cheif engineer. And it just happened to be the one that now needs work. So i remember both working untill some voluneteer people messing with it. And screwed up a few things. But thats ok with me since the company was tired of sinking money into military stuff and gave it to me for free. Wooohooo if its free its for me.
Post a pic of the generator, not the nameplate. Make sure we can see the engine if it is not an enclosed unit. Many of the 3kw sets were converted from gas to diesel and some were converted from Onan diesel to Yanmar Diesel.
